The Atlanta Journal-Constitution is reporting that Albert DeMagnus, the 74-year old founder and CEO of Computer Management Services, Inc. was stabbed to death during a home invasion.

When Deputies responded to the home at approximately 2:30 a.m., they found DeMangus with a stab wound. He was taken to Piedmont Fayette Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

The homeowner’s wife told authorities three men demanded cash and jewelry before taking the victim’s gray Lexus and leaving the scene. That’s when she called 911.

Deputies spotted the Lexus near the scene of the home invasion, Babb said. The stolen car crashed in the area of Jimmie Mayfield Boulevard and Bradley Drive and two men ran, he said. Deputies and Fayetteville police officers found located both men.

Jeffrey Lee Wallace, 22, of Atlanta, and Kavion Wyzeenski Tookes, 21, of Decatur, were both arrested and being held Friday night at the Fayette County jail.

One suspect remains at large.

DeMagnus' firm, Computer Management Services, Inc. (CMS) is an Information Technology (IT) augmentation firm that provides IT services to Fortune 500 Companies, the Federal Government, and State and Local Agencies.

    and with the shotty spread the wife would also have died in the process.

    So you've never actually fired a shot gun, or even seen it done except on TV drama shows then?

    In a house, you will never have a target distance that will allow any significant spread [ggpht.com]. (Bird shot).

    With buckshot, its even less:
    5 Yards [shootersforum.com]
    10 Yards [shootersforum.com]
    15 yards [shootersforum.com]

    Yeah, was just about to point this out. I bet that guy's only exposure to shotguns was in 8-bit overhead-view cowboy games.

    A shotgun is not a Claymore mine!

      I fully admit that I'm trolling. ;-)

      You were in the Air Force. Like you know anything about mines or shotguns. Sheesh...

      I know, you played with them on your simulator?

      Don't worry, while you were doing that, the rest of us were laying out the red carpet for you. I mean, you had to have someone to make a runway. ;-)

      (I'm almost, sorta, maybe - just a wee bit - sorry. I just can't help it. I blame weed. Also I blame the fact that you were in the AF.)
